Lightweight and Portable

The Mini Psyop offers a choice between two premium handle materials: Norplex UltreX™ Micarta and Carbon Fiber. The carbon fiber version weighs a mere 1.77 oz (approximately 50 grams); the Micarta version weighs 1.84 oz (approximately 53 grams). Both versions are perfect for everyday carry, whether you're on the go or just out enjoying the summer sun. 

 

Elmax Blade

The Mini Psyop's 2.69 Elmax drop point blade is a force to be reckoned with, offering exceptional toughness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention. 

With a thickness of 0.098 (2.50 mm), the Mini Psyop delivers exceptional slicing power without weighing you down. The blade's dedicated swedge not only adds to its aesthetic appeal but also reinforces the blade's durability for effortless, precision cutting.

 

Ergonomics with Style

The Mini Psyop's streamlined, ergonomic handle allows your thumb to rest comfortably along the blade spine, providing a secure, confident grip in all conditions. With four distinct configurations tailored for various preferences and uses, you can choose the perfect Mini Psyop to suit your individual needs and styles.

 

Norplex UltreX™ Micarta Versions:

1. Olive Green: Bead-blasted stonewashed blade finishes with rose gold aluminum thumb stud and backspacer, offering a classic look.

2. Blue: Satin blade finish with silver aluminum thumb stud and backspacer, providing a clean and refreshing appearance, ideal for summer carry.

Carbon Fiber Versions:

3. Coated Blade: Orange aluminum thumb stud and backspacer add vibrancy to the sleek design. The black-coated stonewashed blade is more resistant to corrosion and rust.

4. Satin Blade: Blue aluminum thumb stud and backspacer complement the elegant design, and the satin blade is easy to clean and maintain.

 

Smooth Action

The time-honored Crossbar Lock ensures a perfect balance of ambidextrous operation, sleek aesthetics, and safety. It delivers smooth and effortless blade deployment with a simple push of the thumb stud. Whether you're in a rush or just enjoying the Mini Psyop's smooth action, the Mini Psyop will always deliver a satisfying experience for you.

Small but mighty

I fish saltwater a lot and having an elmax steel blade is only second to Vanax. Quiet Cary and we knifes are the only ones to make knives in vanax. Elmax is the closest you can get for corrosion proof from salt water but is still no vanax. For the price you get a great knife with incredible corrosion resistance. I with Vonsteed made a vanax knife more affordable than we or quite carry. I think that would own the market at a more affordable price.

Mini Psyop

Just got this knife a few days ago. I really like it. Light weight, very smooth operation and extremely sharp. And, it has a great "hand feel ". This knife is my new favorite!

Gentleman knife

Well built, beautiful, sharp, well balanced. I wish I could hold them before purchasing. The handle was thin and light for my every day carry. I'm happy with the knife but looking to see if the same knife may have a fatter carbon fiber handle. Thanks for making such good quality knifes. I'll be back

Perfect

I’ve unintentionally set myself on a path of finding benchmade bugout killers. Just from shopping knives that fit my preferences, thin, lighter etc. this adds to the list. This knife rotates through my daily carry of a Kershaw mini iridium and Kershaw bel air. Love the carbon fiber and Elmax steel is currently battling magnacut for my favorite steel. I love carrying big knives but it’s not always practical so 80% of the time this ends up in my pocket and it disappears.

Great knife
